3. Repeat the layering process with a second a layer of beetroot and spinach. Finish with the final slice of St Tola, grill til brown then set aside.
4. Pesto: blend the pine nuts, basil, salt, pepper, olive oil, and grated cheese in a food processor until well combined. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
5. Salad Dressing: whisk the olive oil, lemon thyme, white wine vinegar, lemon juice, and honey together in a bowl until well combined. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
6. To serve: dot the pesto and balsalmic vinegar around the edge of the plate. Drizzle the St Tola stack with the dressing, then sprinkle over the toasted walnuts.
